It doesn't matter. The liberals are in charge of the Senate now, especially after this. Just think about the power play. Who do you think is in charge of the Senate now? Frist or McCain? Whatever the House passes will be watered down in the Senate.
"The liberals are in charge of the Senate now"
McCain's in charge of the Senate now. He figured out that he was never going to take over the Republican caucus, so now he's chairing a "center"/left alliance.
Today's deal shows that Bill Frist has no control over the Senate. McCain is calling the shots.
I'm starting to wonder if he might pull a third party stunt in 2008.
Lindsey Graham was willing to SUE THE SENATE!
You can tell he's a damn lawyer.
UGH!!!
